Gunfire at Jibril”s Bekaa Base
Automatic gunfire was heard Tuesday night near the Bekaa town of Bar Elias in areas manned by Syrian-backed Palestinian militants, the National News Agency reported.
It said sporadic gunfire was heard the entire night of Tuesday-Wednesday in the area where Ahmed Jibril”s Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC) has a base.
NNA said the crackle of automatic fire echoed specifically in the area called "Nafaq Ain al-Bayda."
Last month, al-Balad daily said PFLP-GC members have carried out a massive deployment outside their headquarters in Luci and Sultan Yaqoub, planting land mines and bombs to ward off against a possible Israeli landing.
The militants also set up 14.5mm machine guns around the two bases, according to al-Balad.
